Hi,
yes, you should add the information to the '/etc/network/interfaces'
file under Debian. Here is an example how to connect to an access point
with ESSID 'Home' without WEP and using DHCP to obtain your IP information :
---
auto eth1
iface eth1 inet dhcp
wireless_essid Home
wireless_mode Managed
---
You can obtain more information about this file format from the
following URL :
